2019 BROKER SENTIMENT SURVEY

Transwestern’s annual broker survey projects that the U.S. commercial real estate market will continue to perform well in 2019. This sentiment is buoyed by the results of the 2018 elections, as Congressional gridlock reduces the likelihood of political or economic policy changes and raises expectations for continued, albeit slower economic growth. Strong consumer and business confidence and record job growth is contributing to healthy commercial real estate fundamentals across nearly every property type, with strong liquidity from both debt and equity.
